In September, Nyan Heroes made waves with its Closed Playtest, notably featuring the Deathmatch mode. Set in a futuristic world, players pilot a Nyan cat in a Guardian Mech, blending elements of fantasy and science fiction. Originally an NFT project with cats on space saucers, Nyan Heroes has evolved into a highly anticipated battle royale game.

With the ability to summon guardians and engage in intense battles, players are promised a rich gaming experience, backed by a sustainable in-game economy.

Wreck League

Wreck League made headlines in September as holders got the chance to play, compete for points, and place on the leaderboard to earn amazing prizes. Additionally, the fighting game introduced the Mez’i’s Mayhem tournament. Set in the Megaverse, Wreck League stands as the pinnacle of mech sports combat. Originating from a distant junk moon and governed by B.R.A.W.L, it's renowned for its intense battles and vast customization options. Integrating characters from Bored Ape, Kennel Club, and the Otherside, the game offers a rich lore and intense 1v1 real-time battles.

Shardbound

Shardbound garnered attention with its closed playtest invitation, especially after the game's impressive showcase at Gamescom 2023. A unique blend of Tactical and Collectible Card Game genres, Shardbound allows players to collect units and build armies for head-to-head battles. With six unique heroes and a collection of 275 units and spells, players can complete quests on Shardfalls to earn rewards. The game introduces six factions, each with a distinct playstyle, and players can harness the power of shards derived from Adonalsium to unlock limitless power.
